Review

The usage iterates over a data stream to encrypt all values fetched from it. During the iteration, the same Cipher instance is reused for the encryption tasks---which is fine---, but it is also reinitialized with each iteration. Cipher does not support reinitialization and, hence, this may lead to erroneous encryption.

The init() call should happen before the loop.
